I'm gonna go with what ryn said and assume your stance is still WIN on the notion of poking fun at BioWare's worst romance dialogue since well...ever.

On another note, I keep thinking Freya has the ultimate fall-back plan once the whole Reaper thing is over: "I'm Commander Shepard - and this is how you get yourself in shape!" 

Hehe, yeah I still think it's hilarious, as is her post-Reaper career idea

The Jacob romance is good for one thing - and that's getting good full-body shots of Shep while she's leaning back against the table. Fly cam means you can do it all the time, naturally but those scenes are the only ones where she...poses. BioWare made our space-marine pose...

I really need some screen shots of her. RYN can I give you her facecode so you can take some screenies of her?

Sadly there are no epic shotgun poses in the whole game, every other weapon gets at least one but never the shotgun. You have to use an in combat shot which presents it's own set of challenges . . .

Actually there is one on Gei Heinnom(sp) where you rescue the stranded Quarian. As the quarian heads for the shuttle, Shep pulls out her shotgun (regardless of whether or not she actually has one!) and stands guard before Kung Fu kicking that Varren that runs at her. If you are playing a shotgun using class and have the Claymore equipped I think she will pull out that one in the cutscene.

She does but it doesn't produce a very good screenshot because you can't really see what's going on, so it wouldn't really count it as an epic shotgun pose.

Thankfully, I feel that this was addressed in LotSB, especially if Liara is Shepard's LI. One of the criticisms of the retail version of ME2 and it's narrative is that Shepard's death is seemingly brushed aside, and trivialised into a meaningless plot device and gameplay mechanic. I feel that this was epitomised during the confrontation with Nassana Dantius, where Shepard responds to her shocked reaction with a blase "I got better". It's as if she is not particularly bothered by the fact that she was killed, and then resurrected. However, during Liara's ME2 romance scene in which she emotionally laments Shepard's death, the Commander repeats the above line that she used during the confrontation with Nassana. It's like a reprise, and a flashback to Shepard's indifference and the trivialisation of her death.

Bearing in mind that I'm not a huge fan of the death/resurrection start of ME2, I mostly disagree with this.

I don't think that Shepard's death from Shepard's point of view is necessarily problematic for her. She made an unpleasant exit from the old Normandy, then she woke up on a medical table nearly fully intact and ready for action. From her point of view, dying was probably like taking a serious hit on the battlefield: it hurt, she went unconscious, she woke up in the doc's office. Not pleasant, but part of her line of work, and something she's mentally prepared to deal with. In fact, she might not even believe she was really dead, just seriously injured. If you woke up in a strange hospital and Cerberus told you that you had been dead for two years and that somehow, they, an avowed enemy of yours, had worked a miracle and resurrected you, would you believe them? It doesn't seem likely.

Nor do I think that it's unrealistic for the rest of the universe to be relatively unsurprised by Shep's reappearance. After all, if anyone is going to fake their death and disappear for two years, it's going to be a Spectre. Shepard was a hero and a celebrity at the end of ME1. It seems like it would be hard to be a badass undercover operative of the Council when you're famous. Thus, her flippancy with Nassana was perfectly appropriate: In front of Nassana, she's going to play it Spectre cool. I think Shep's answer was her implying, in a smart-assed and deceptive sort of way, that Nassana's intel on the subject of Shep's health was inaccurate.

Thus, the only people who would really feel Shep's death at the visceral level were the people who saw her die: the old Normandy crew, basically. This seems to me to be reflected in the game. Tali, Garrus, Liara, Wrex, and the VS all have fairly emotional reactions to finding out Shepard is alive. The rest of the galaxy, not so much.

That being said, I agree that the old crew should have questioned Shep more closely about what happened to her, and Shep's explanations could have been much, much better. Shepard never once states forcefully that she was completely unconscious and out of action for the entire time she'd been gone and that she didn't desert everyone and/or spend all that time becoming a Cerberus sympathizer. It's like her dialog was written to be purposefully ambiguous about the subject of her death and time away, to make sure that whoever she's talking to had at least some justification to be suspicious of her.

And, please, please, PLEASE, in the future, don't force our poor FemSheps to flirt with someone they may not want to *coughs* Jacob *coughs*



Seriously... right? You dont see the male forced to flirt with male characters. I just avoid talking to Jacob at all because of that. And what is the deal with FemShep being limited, Jack obviously flips fences so why not let that be an option? You can with the PC version... but ok ok, that would have made me cheat on Liara and maybe I just want to see the marriage, old age and a lot of little blue children.

[aCuteBrat2u]

But, I would like to have the option, if I am going to play the loyalty card, to tell the character that I love them... I mean, really, if it means that much to keep going... build on it. Keep going. I would have liked to have seen romance scenes like from ME1 in the commanders quarters too. This fully clothed grind thing... well, it leaves it lacking the same effect.



BTW... this thread is EXACTLY what I was looking for with the FemShep...

She'll be fully armored - which is going to take quite a while to draw, but it's always fun.

I disagree.
 
I wouldn't call the reactions of some of the former crew particularly emotional. Tali says something along the lines of "Shepard, is that you? And with Cerberus?" and then the search for Veetor on Freedom's Progress continues and we get to kill more mechs. Garrus's "I thought you were dead." isn't either - it continues Shepard going "Garrus, long time, no see!" and with happy merc killing.

The only ones I found "emotional" were Liara, Ash, Kaidan and Wrex.

Same.  And Wrex didn't even know.

It's sad, really. And on the rare occassions my Shep wanted to talk to Garrus or Tali, they yelled "Calibrations!" or "Console!" at her. Thanks, guys, it's good to see that you meant the whole "I'm here if you need me." thing.
